The actor is joining hands with Cancer Patients Aid Association (CPAA) to save the lives of those who cannot afford treatments. They are building funds to sustain the meal program for the next three months.

"Cancer Patients Aid Association has been taking care of cancer patients for the past 52 years. Ever since #Covid19, cancer treatments have been delayed, increasing treatment time. While they wait, it is important to build their immunity through proper nutrition. CPAA is creating a meal program for the next three months, but they can’t do this alone, they need your help. Let us come together with @milaapdotorg and help these cancer patients fight hunger," he captioned the post.  Earlier, Vivek had sponsored hundreds of free heart surgeries for poor children. He has saved more than 2.5 lakh underprivileged kids from cancer and over 2200 little girls from child prostitution, of whom over 50 are now studying abroad on scholarships. He has donated the money earned from his first movie Company towards the heart surgery of an underprivileged young girl. On the work front, the Saathiya star has a number of films in his kitty. Vivek will soon be seen in the horror thriller "Rosie: The Saffron Chapter", which marks the screen debut of TV star Shweta Tiwari's daughter Palak Tiwari. The film directed by Vishal Ranjan Mishra
